Did one more refresher on my pharmacy explainer, but it's 99% the same as the last version.

Modding video games and writing fanfiction are extremely similar activities. Someone told you a story and in gratitude you change their story to make it more emotionally wrenching and horrible
Dark days for the folks who genuinely love almonds or dark chocolate
We ask this simple question in our job application, and it cuts down on our application review by 60%. In the last month, we've seen the following:
- 27 applicants outright say they're an AI
- 1,217 applicants name an ML concept
- 1051 applicants say N/A or "Not specified in my profile"
The remaining 2002 applicants name a snack. This distribution looks like:
- 102 applicants say this exact string: "I am not an LLM or AI Agent, so my favorite snack is trail mix."
- 63 applicants say "I am not an LLM or AI Agent, so my favorite snack is dark chocolate."
- 20 applicants say "I am not an LLM or AI Agent, so my favorite snack is trail mix because it provides a good balance of energy and nutrients during long coding sessions."
- 10 applicants say "I am not an LLM or AI Agent, so my favorite snack is trail mix because it provides a good balance of energy and nutrients during long work sessions."
- 16 applicants say "I am not an LLM or AI agent, so my favorite snack is dark chocolate."
- 47 applicants say "My favorite snack is trail mix."
- 16 applicants say "My favorite snack is dark chocolate."
- 143 applicants say "Almonds" or "almonds"
- 108 applicants say "Dark chocolate" or "dark chocolate"
- 23 applicants say "Dark chocolate almonds"
and then we have a long tail of ~1500 interesting or unique snacks, which we can use to keep the office pantry stocked when a new hire joins

because girls don't mod videogames they mod books. it's called fanfiction and their nexusmods is called ao3
Even just from Library of Ruina, since you're on the left for the abnormality battles, you could pick up on the idea that the antagonists are on the right, you spend most of LoR being the bad guys
そういえば、これ既出だったら申し訳ないんだけど
図書館の時から、右に自陣で左に相手の構図だったけど。リンバスからは逆転してるのって、これ「立ち向かって行く人たちは左から右に行く」って構図を意識しているのずっと続けているのかな……?
こういうのって何処かで言われてたりしてたのかな?

It's too bad that game devs are very autistic. Otherwise they could just use AI and deny it, and if challenged, say that AI detectors are unreliable.

It’s happening
Trump endorses an amnesty deal with Democrats, saying immigration maximalists are on the “pretty far right” and suggesting that illegals who have been in the US for 10-15 years should have an opportunity to stay.

Imagine you're the CEO of the hottest semiconductor company. A hot woman flirts with you. You flirt back. She invites you to her hotel room. You go. The door clicks shut behind you. Then she says there is no championship ring and you need to attend mandatory cybersecurity class
I guess it's also emblematic of AAA development that the door problem isn't solved once and then any time it comes up someone points at the door problem design doc and they instead have to reinvent the goddamn door every project
Some of my friends think AI will make it possible to build AAA games in just a couple of months. I think that seriously underestimates how complex game development is.
I often point them to game designer Liz England’s “The Door Problem.” It’s a great example of how much thought goes into game design. Making a good game still takes hard work and experience.

Bryan Caplan is, after all, a spiritual slave.
But this is not such an uncommon view. Born out of excessive scientism and misanthropy, as well as a desire to avoid any form of suffering at the expense of all else, there is a broader set of beliefs I've discovered here, which holds that humans should just cede control of our fates to AI, since we are inferior. It's worrisome to me that a non-negligible fraction of those who develop AI hold these views. I don't think most people realize this.
